#Twitter and #Facebook

Social media has changed our lives.  I have yet to decide if it is for the better or not.  Sure, I talk to people and keep in touch with ones that I probably would have lost forever.  But, it has changed so much of how we communicate with people.  I know there have been guys I have tried to write to that completely comes off wrong because half of how we talk is in body langauge, tone of voice, and facial expressions.  For that reason, I am not a huge fan of social media.  Yet, I do use it.

Facebook and I are friends sometimes.  I wasn't a big fan of it at first, then it grew on me, then I decided I hated reading about people's kids being sick, then I got some new friends that I check on regualarly.  However, I have not jumped into working with facebook for business reasons.  I know it may help, but I just haven't wanted to do it yet.

Twitter on the other hand, well, twitter is my good friend.  I started using it like most people, to follow my favorite celebrities.  I have a large collection of them that I just find funny.  I like to know what people are up to.  I always have, my friends use to think I was weird because I would know what the guys I had crushes on were up to.  Now I don't need to learn these things, it is all on twitter.  It has made stalking someone so much easier to do.  I now have friends I like to follow as well, and completely enjoy talking to them.  I also have this lovely addition to my computer called TweetDeck, and oh my gosh, it is the best thing ever.  I have all of my following grouped into lists so that I can read which one I want to read when I want to.  I have my friends, famous people, etsy, and even my religion.  It even comes up and tells me if someone mentions me in a tweet.  It is so super nice.  I feel like ever since I got that I have been able to carry on conversations better with people, and that is all that twitter is really about, talking to people via text.  I love it.

So, how do you use social media like Twitter and Facebook?
